PADUCAH – The National Weather Service in Paducah says a Winter Weather Advisory will be in effect from noon today until midnight tonight for portions of southern Illinois and southeast Missouri.
Forecasters say wet snow is expected with total snow accumulations of up to one inch, but localized higher amounts are possible.
A narrow band of heavy snow will be capable of causing highly variable slushy pavement accumulations. Locally 1 to 2 inch per hour snowfall rates are possible. The greatest totals are expected to occur on grassy and elevated surfaces. Slippery road conditions are also possible where heavier snow occurs.
Confidence is low in where the narrow band of heavy snow will set up. A slight shift north or south will make a huge difference in seeing minor impacts or no impacts at all.
Slow down and use caution while traveling.
